Pilgrim is a teaching and discipleship resource from the Church of England that helps enquirers explore what it means to travel through life with Jesus Christ. This fourth book in the Follow Stage, The Beatitudes explores the Christian vision for the world, including thirsting for what is right, peacemaking, and living as citizens of God’s Kingdom.

Pilgrim is a teaching and discipleship resource that will help enquirers and new Christians explore what it means to travel through life with Jesus Christ. It offers an approach of participation, not persuasion, encouraging enquirers to practice the ancient disciplines of biblical reflection and prayer, exploring key texts that have helped people since the earliest days of the Christian faith.

How can we build our lives on the teaching and example of Jesus? The Beatitudes are probably the most important, subversive and revolutionary text in the Bible. In order to follow Jesus and live the Christian life, we need to enter into the challenging but beautiful world of the Beatitudes and that is what this exciting course is all about.

Session One: Living with Openness to God - Looks at what it means to live with openness to God and to the world.
Session Two: Thirsting for what is right - What does it mean to live with obedience to God and with a desire to put things right in the world as God intends?
Session Three: Living Transparently - Exploring what it means to be transparent in all we do and are, looking at how we show others the mercy God gives to us.
Session Four: Peacemaking - What does it mean to be a peacemaker after the example of Christ and what is the cost of this witness?
Session Five: Living as Citizens of God’s Kingdom - Looks at what Jesus meant by the kingdom and how we can live as its citizens.
Session Six: Foundations - Explores what it means to build our lives on the teaching and example of Jesus, as we have seen in the Beatitudes

All sessions combine a simple framework prayer, reflection on the Bible in the lectio divina style, an article by a modern writer, and time for questions and reflection, supported by online audio-visual resources.
